In 1990, Laura Evans was unable to walk four blocks. She was ravaged by breast cancer and the debilitating side effects of the radical treatment that had been recommended to save her life. Yet in February 1995 she climbed to the summit of the highest mountain in the Western Hemisphere, leading sixteen other breast cancer survivors in a heroic demonstration of the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity. This thrilling, fast-paced survival story chronicles Evans's journey, from her diagnosis of cancer to the agony of treatment to her recovery and the birth of Expedition Inspiration. The culmination is the heroic ascent of 23,000-foot-high Mount Aconcagua in the Argentinean Andes. Expedition Inspiration is an organization devoted to engaging others to face the challenges in their lives and to climb their own personal mountains - one step at a time. Evans draws us into her story, describing in bold emotional detail both the exhilarating and heart-wrenching moments throughout her bout with cancer and while climbing remote and dangerous mountains. She copes with losing her hair, her strength, and nearly her life, but she rarely loses her lively sense of humor. She recalls breathtaking and enlightening expeditions to mountain peaks in Nepal, Africa, and Russia. Dedicated to helping others and to raising awareness and funds for the breast cancer cause, Evans will donate proceeds from this book to the Expedition Inspiration Fund for Breast Cancer Research.
